Av. Reunov et al., EFFECT OF 1,3-1,6-BETA-D-GLUCAN ON INFECTION OF DETACHED TOBACCO-LEAVES WITH TOBACCO MOSAIC-VIRUS, Journal of phytopathology, 144(5), 1996, pp. 247-249
Glucan preparations were obtained by transformation of laminaran from
the alga Laminaria cichorioides with endo-beta-1,3-glucanase from mari
ne mollusks. These preparations, like those of other sources, have an
inhibitory effect on tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection of detached
leaves of local and systemic host tobacco plants.
